FAQ

Question:  
I get images, that have NOTHING to do with what I’m really searching for, when I use the search tool. What do I do wrong?

Answer:  
You most likely put more than one word in the search field. If you want to search for something specific, please use the word AND in your search. The standard search is OR…. Look at the “Search Tips” (right under the search field) for more hints.
  

Question:  
I found a picture / design that I really like. What can I use the images that I find for?

Answer:  
Glad you asked. You can use the tattoo designs that you find for personal use, which means, you can use them to get the design tattooed on you, you can use it as inspiration for you new tattoo, you can print the design or photo and hang it in your home. In other words, you can use it for PRIVATE AND NON-COMMERCIAL purposes.
It is explicitly forbidden to:
- Sell any of the images you see
- Publish any of the images in any way shape or form (e.g. on your own web page, in news groups, chat board, books or any other publications)
- Link to images on our page (you are allowed and encouraged to link to the page itself!)

Question:  
But the image I want to sell / publish is from an “unknown” artist. Could I use these images?
 
Answer:  
No. The administrators of TattooZone own the right to publish all images you see on our page. In the previous version of our page we did not ask all artists to become a registered member, this is why some of the images don’t have a name associated with them. Nevertheless the artists that submitted the image only gave permission to the administrators of TattooZone to publish these images, and because of that, nobody else is allowed to.
  

Question:  
How do I upload files / pictures?

Answer:
1) Go to http://www.tattoozone.org

2) Click on "Free Tattoo Flash" or where ever you want to upload images
in the upper right corner you will see an UPLOAD button

3) Once you clicked the upload button, locate your image for upload 

4) DO NOT submit a "Thumbnail File" this will be done automatically, once an administrator has validated the image. Just leave the Thumbnail File Section empty

5) Please give the image a short and precise name (this will show up 
UNDER the image later) - Max 1-2 words

6) You can leave the "Description" empty (if you want), but if possible use the keywords.

7) After you submitted the picture, it needs to be validated by an Administrator.

Please let us know, if you have any trouble!


Question:  
I have uploaded my photo / flash, but it does not show in the gallery. What did I do wrong?
 
Answer:  
Most likely: Nothing. All images that are uploaded are subject to validation by an administrator. Only after that they will show up in the gallery.
